I didnt hear the context but given his situation he would have to say no if he was asked in public. he couldnt afford to be ambiguous or anything and would have to completely refute the idea

He didn't refute the idea last time...

Bomber rules out Essendon

We don't want any distractions in this footy club. We just want to remain focused and our focus is on this week's game against the Tigers. I am not thinking about next year.

Didn't rule it out, just refused to discuss it...

I can't tell you what Essendon should do. I can just tell you what I am doing and that is coaching Geelong this week.

Would love to hear the context of what was said on AW.
 
If true that Bomber was keen to talk to us after the 2007 GF what a complete hash the way the board handled things, i.e. making the Knights appointment only a few days earlier. Then the 2yr contract extension, they really to be looked at.

If Bomber says "stuff you Essendon" because of what happened in 2007 then clearly he has ego issues.

He was asked the question directly twice by Gerard Healy and he said unequivocally that he won't be coaching Essendon next year.

The thing that surprises me is that, in my opinion, the coach that gets the best out of the cattle at his disposal is Paul Roos. Yet his name never seems to come up in connection with your coaching job. He's out of contract and if I were in your shoes I'd throw the kitchen sink at him. It would be a long shot but you guys aren't short of a dollar.

Paul Roos is the best coach in the AFL but I doubt he will come. Offer him $5m over 3 years + a house + a job with a corporate partner.
